Political involvement should be a requirement for citizenship

It is now Associate Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. She is the first black woman to hold the position on the court.

The Conservative Right-Wing Trumpist tried to dehumanize Ms. Brown Jackson. They were unsuccessful, and now her journey to the highest level of jurisprudence in the United States of America is complete. She is currently an Associate Justice in the Supreme Court of the United States of America. SCOTUS has lost most of its credibility as it has become just another arm of the Right Wing minority.

I was very annoyed during Judge Brown Jackson’s confirmation as I wrote the following.

As I listened to the Senators hypocritically question Ketanji Brown Jackson, I could not help but recall my experiences as a Black engineer both in the US and China.

The SCOTUS hearings were depressing to many. How can a very qualified woman who happens to be Black get treated with a level of disrespect and dishonesty in 2022? Many Black women told me that is what they expected. I expected it but hoped it wouldn’t happen. But this week proved that the hate that Donald Trump made vogue was just the removal of a scab.

But I choose to accentuate the positive. As I navigated Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and other platforms, I saw WHITE PEOPLE providing not only an informed defense of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson but an open call out of the troglodytes, the racist/sexist/misogynist senators that attacked her.

SCOTUS has lost most of its credibility as it has become just another arm of the Right Wing minority. Associate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is sure to elevate the level of thinking as a new and more rounded voice is added.

    Politico note

    In a stinging defeat for Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Florida judge said he will temporarily block a new law that would prohibit all abortions in the state after 15 weeks of pregnancy.
    The law, which provides no exceptions for victims of rape, incest or human trafficking, was approved by the Republican-led Legislature and signed into law by DeSantis in April.
    The judge’s decision comes as the nation grapples with how to move forward with reproductive rights in the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s ruling overturning Roe v. Wade.

    This misogynistic move is the key to understanding all the phobias we White people love to cultivate.
